Jiway’s total volume in the first two weeks of trading amounted to 2,892 trades, with a high of 840 trades on 29 November. Per Swensson, Chief Executive of Jiway, said, "Over the past fortnight, Jiway has demonstrated a solid and promising start to its operations. Step by step, we are providing retail investors with a broadening range of international equities, and a sophisticated yet streamlined system through which to trade them. We currently have brokers accessing Jiway from Sweden and the UK, and the most popular stocks so far have been French. This supports our view that retail clients want to trade across borders, and as a consequence we are adding further French stocks to facilitate this."

Jiway Holdings Ltd, parent company of Jiway, also announced that it has appointed Ian Cohen as Chief Executive of Jiway Broker Services AB (JBS). JBS, based in Stockholm, provides the clearing, settlement and safekeeping services for Jiway Limited. Separately, banks and brokerage firms can contract a complete online trading facility, including front and back office systems, hardware, communications equipment and back-up facilities from Jiway Broker Services.

Ian Cohen joined Morgan Stanley Dean Witter in 1998 responsible for Y2K business relationships for Europe, and for the management of the MSDW European Y2K team. Since January 2000, he has led the MSDW project team on the post-trade side of the Jiway project. Morgan Stanley Dean Witter is co-proprietor of Jiway with the Swedish OM Group.

Per Swensson said, "With Ian at the helm, Jiway Broker Services will enter a new phase with a broader international focus. Ian has a great track record in post trade and back office work, and we are delighted that he has joined us."

Bo Hägg, present Managing Director of Jiway Broker Services, will assume a business development role with Jiway Holdings, the parent company.
